In an April 27th letter addressed to Christopher A. Wray, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) an attorney by training complained of the illegal activities in her District (NY-24th) by representatives of Direct Action Everywhere.  She cites numerous instances of animal theft, trespass and intrusion by the organization, currently regarded as a domestic terrorist group.

Rep. Tenney points to the website of the organization stating their objectives and disregard for the rule of law. She stated firmly “Promotion of organized criminal activity cannot be tolerated.”

The letter states, “Basic constitutional rights must be upheld and basic property rights must be protected.  I urge the FBI to send a clear message that compliance with federal law is not a choice but an obligation and those who promote noncompliance will be held accountable.”
